Hallo,
where can I download the original Acer HC 3.0.1 or better the new HC 3.2 for the A501 3G (German).
I need it to reinstall the original Firmware because the Mods are without Support for the build in 3G Modem an I have no backup of my original ROM ...
Thanks

3.0.1 used to be available in acer support downloads, but today isn't there. I think that they're sort of uploading the new version, so I'm afraid you have to wait some days. However here on XDA forum someone posted A501 rom image, so you might try to search for it.

I'm running taboonay v2.0 on a501, 3g function work well...
Taboonay not work well, my tablet reboot when i active 3g ...
It is the only bug that i have on my A501 with Taboonay ... I hope this bugg will corrected soon ...
Sorry for a noob question,I have an a500 with virtuous picasso 1.1,I was wondering if theres a better rom and the easiest way to install it.I have clockwork recovery and I was looking at taboonay 2.0,its confusing.When I rooted Vp it was all one zip,do I need to do multi zips kernal etc?Thanks all
I would suggest Lightspeed. Its just 1 file that you install though recovery.
Thanks vask,I play a bit with ios this is my first android,Ive done back ups wipes etc.I just got Taboonay full 2.0 I heard it was a great and smooth rom.I did as directed when installing,Its kinda bare,Im not complaining its nice.I miss a few acer options and some picasso also.Thank you for telling me about light speed,i may give that a go.I love the freedom we have with Android and my acer a500,Im having a blast learning. You guys are awesome!

I didn't check operation of kernels from thor with this ROM
Ok flashed it and as expected its solid stock rom. No bells or whistles but very good. Works well with villain kernel. For me however i have gone back to your vg1.1.0 as i love it. Will you be updatin the base of that to 3.2.1 as your thread at tableroms.com hasnt been updated for a while. Thanks again.
I am sure many who love that minimal stock option will love this but me i just love the virtuous galaxy roms. Hope its not been abandoned

The difference between 3.2 and 3.2.1 for G100W consists in update of applications of Google. In that case VG 1.1.0 it is possible to consider the same 3.2.1. Whether the Samsung will be let out 3.2.1 for Ð7õõ0 by me don't know. ICS 4.0 will be let out in the spring for Ð7õõ0. If there will be no problems with transfer, I will make on it following VG.
Thanks, now I can fully update my Flexstriker rom before I release it.

Please check camera drivers as I reinstalled this rom and when I attempted to take a pic it froze. Camera stopped working afterwards. Drivers prob need changing to Acer ones I think

When installed on Acer a500 can I be recognized as a500 or will say as another device?

i attached a build.prop that you can put in your /system folder that will make it be seen as an A500

update: also confirmed: villainkernel fixed the camera
How do I fix the "insert SIM card" issue?
I have an Acer Tab A500.
BTW, Awesome rom, great for tweaking and using adb.
Thanks.

Thanks, btw, I tried your ROMs and cannot do adb remount, I tried editing default.prop and nothing.

Thanks, stick with another ROM please, the last thing I need is another headache with someone that doesn't even know how to edit a build prop for wifi only. No offense intended.

Hey folks,
I am using this [ROM][ICS4.0.3] Taboonay 3.0.1 (28/02/2012)
on my Iconia a501.
Works really great. Fast and smooth... great job.
I know this Rom is based on the a500 Rom.
So my 3g is not working (or should it?)... anyway, is there a way to get it working?
I already installed the test_a501.zip
Thanks for all answers.
Got exactly the same problem. Installed A501 Patch but doesn't seem to have any effect. Is there anything else to do in order to make it work ?

Need update plz
There are 3 things you can do to try and resolve this problem.
A) make Acer release the official update
2) hack into Acers systems and find a leak for a501
C) learn how to code and fix it

The current ICS roms only support the a500 at this time. This is most likely kernel related and rom related.
The "fix" zips, were only for testing purposes. If people would read the thread, they would've seen the fix's didn't work. Now you have a somewhat modified kernel on your tab which may or may not give you issues.
Until Acer releases or "leaks" an ICS a501 rom, we are stuck with 3.2.1.
Ok,
First of all, thanks bfranklin for your smashing proposal...
I thought the 3g modem in the asus tab and the modem of Iconia tab are identic and it is possible to use that driver for the a501 for example.
try to take the scripts and drivers form loak 3.0.1 and put in the same folders on your ROM
I have my Iconia a500 rooted with Clockworkmod. I can't find any information about flashing a custom ROM though. Does anyone have lightspeed ROM or Thor's ROM installed on their a500? Or experience with both? I wanted to install CM10 but the only information I can find is the preview build for the Iconia a500 thread here, on the last page of the thread I was redirected to a new thread, which doesn't focus on the a500 anymore it just focuses on CM10 in general. The reason I want a new ROM is because I want to get rid of all the bloatware acer has on my tablet. I know my iconia will never be as fast as my Nexus 7 but I'm sure some custom ROM can atleast speed it up a little. Thanks.
EDIT: Apparently I can just delete the bloatware now that I'm rooted. So I guess my new question is what would you guys suggest deleting, what is safe to remove? And what is the best program to remove factory installed apps.
As far as an alternate rom goes, I just recently installed Tegraowners JB ROM v15 and it works great. I love it. You can check it out under the forums section on the tegraowners website. They have a discussions specifically for the A500.
